Taylor Swift will be visiting Houston's Minute Maid Park in September instead of October, in order to avoid a possible conflict with the Astros' playoff schedule.AP

Even Taylor Swift can’t get in the way of the Houston Astros.

After announcing the tour dates for her 1989 World Tour last December, the Houston Astros announced via Twitter — and to much Internet laughter — that the original October 13 date would be subject to change should the team make the playoffs.

ok lol RT @astros Note: the date of the Taylor Swift 1989 tour show is subject to change if it conflicts with an Astros postseason home game

While a trip to the postseason seemed like a long shot for the Astros earlier this year, being two years removed from a 51-win season, now that the MLB’s latest Cinderella story is in the playoff hunt, the Houston brass invited Swift and company to visit the ballpark on Sept. 9 instead.

#Astros announce new Houston date for Taylor Swift's The 1989 World Tour will be Wednesday, September 9 at Minute Maid Park.

“As a concert and special event venue, Minute Maid Park is committed to providing the best experience to not only Astros fans, but to the fans of all of the artists that perform at the ballpark,” the Astros explained in a press release. “The new show date will ensure that fans of Taylor Swift will have every opportunity to see her perform at Minute Maid Park, as the Sept. 9 date does not conflict with any potential postseason baseball.”

The Astros not only have a two-game lead over the Minnesota Twins for the top wild-card spot, but are one game shy of reclaiming first place from the Angels in the American League West.

Should the Astros’ season implode before Swift takes the stage in September, let’s hope that no “Bad Blood” is spilled on home plate.
